Bangladesh's foreign exchange reserves fell to $9.386 billion at the end of January from $9.63 billion in December, and were down from $10.38 billion a year earlier, the central bank said on Wednesday.
Foreign exchange reserves hit a record $11.32 billion in April last year but have since eased due to soaring imports, mainly of oil, while exports and remittances have grown more slowly amid a cooling global economy. Reserves slipped to $9.28 billion in November, the lowest since August 2009.
